Dawn Richard spoke to Essence and basically she has no idea what is happening with Danity Kane:

ESSENCE.COM: Last night’s finale of “Making The Band 4” was sort of subdued drama with a pretty ambiguous ending. Diddy has left the ladies of Danity Kane to decide what the group’s future will be. What is your hope for the group?

DAWN RICHARD: We talked about it and there’s a fear we have of losing our fan base. But at the end of the day, Diddy made his choice to let us decide and we would like to continue with the name and the group. This is our lives and you can’t just say no to your dreams. I love working with the group. However, it’s so hard to say what will happen. I would prefer that the original group members remain. It’s hard enough for fans to follow as is.

ESSENCE.COM: Diddy is a beast when it comes to whipping his groups into shape and his truth hurts. He already let Aubrey go and then D. Woods was a no-show last night. Have you spoken or plan to speak to any of the ladies?

RICHARD: No, I haven’t. Honestly, we really don’t talk that much, but I wish them the best of luck. I showed up, and as one person, I can only do so much. If they want to get in touch with me, they will because I totally support them and always will. All of this stuff affects us because these are our lives. Diddy tells us to try to save our group and some of us don’t show up? We’re making a serious statement to him about the future of this group by doing so.

So you guys don’t talk much which means you’re not friends and a group that is not friends, breaks up. How is this predictable little show popular again?

We have pictures from her shoot below. She even manages not to look so transgender-ish in a few… well, in one of em.

    @ Oh Lawdy ~

    I agree!!!! She has a very distinctive voice!!!!

    DEAD @ that damn gravie!!! :lol:

  • CaramelKandie

    Dawn is such a snake!! We already know how shady Diddy is cuz all of his groups have left him because of money and management issues…faith, lil kim, 112, lox, carl thomas, craig mack, etc. and if biggie was alive, he’d probably leave his ass too! Dawn coulda told the group that she was doing solo stuff with Diddy on the side! Aubrey told the group about her first photo shoot (on the first season) and D. woods even went to support her.

    But seriously, none of these girls are beautiful or remotely talented so what was their purpose anyway? D. Woods was actually the only one with a hint of talent. I think people are so into Dawn because she overcame Katrina, but she still looks like a man

  • Celia

    a typical diddy. Dawn is ugly. Aubrey and D. Woods kept that band noticed. No one care about Dawn but it’s funny that now the Aubrey and D. Woods is gone Dawn has all of a sudden become the star of the group. It’s also funny that Puffy didn’t know or care about any internal issues with the group until he started spending all this solo time with Dawn. *blank stare* Go head and keep up the shadiness “star” backstab your way to the top.

  • OH LAWDY!!!! SEXIEST GRAVIE IN AMERICA!!!

  • RealizReal

    well did u think D Woods really wanted to make that kind of music???! If you check her Myspace, she has a whole other group established called “The Bad Girls Club”!!! It’s a good look..

  • Butterflygirl

    Diddy must like her because she looks like a man. Her face is so hard.

  • Dani

    DAWN IS A TRANNY

    That GROUP IS DEAD without Aubrey n D.

    They were the Heart n SOUL..NEXT!

  • cutie pie*kindly putting people on blast est.1985*

    can’t say i dodn’t see it coming…i was surprised diddy allowed them to come out with another album..you know how diddy does it he’s comfortable with one hit wonders being on his label..that leaves more attention for him…

    has anyone else noticed that there isn’t one act on Bad Boy today bigger or more successful than diddy?? he likes it like that…shame on it!

  • ebGCH

    I didn’t know her tooth was f*cked up?

  • Chi-Town

    Time for a 9-5 like everyone else, you have been pimped by the Diddy.

  • He’s Presidential

    I like Dawn she writes music as well she has some good songs out.. on you tube

  • Creole Baby Bustin Loose

    a bad boy group is breakin up — oh my

  • tara

    no i think the group is very good. and they shouldnt break up. to be honest ,i love the girl very much , she is so beautiful and zexual . and on ;”””””www.bigbisexual.com;;;;;;;;;;;; there is a profile about her . there re more details about her . also there re some more sexual pics and hot videoes about her , that’s really wonderful . if u re really interested in her . dont be miss that ..

  • ATXChick

    I JUST DONT CARE NO MORE IM NOT GETTING THE MONEY…

  • Oshie

    Encyclopedia Brown: Your headstone will read “Here Lies a Minstrel”. It’s true.

  • it’s me dammit!!!

    I’m not surprised by this at all, remember DA Band, he made money off the show and then disbanded them, but that group sucked anyway, Danity Kane was pretty successful but I don’t think they got the promotions that they needed, Dawn is not cute at all, and she can sing, but she does not have enough appeal to be a successful solo artist, so she just needs to continue dancing and doing background vocals for Diddy, did anybody notice that she only looks decent when she poses to the side, she really looks like a man when she poses head on.

  • honesty4u

    For the love of God, just how many stupid, shallow people are there out here? Why is how someone looks always a topic of discussion. It is so stupid to talk about how someone looks. She is a pretty girl and stop calling her a tranny, it is rude. Love to see what some of you look like but it’s easy to hide behind the computer screen, huh? Not that I really care. She is a beautiful and very talented person who for some reason is being treated exactly the same way Beyonce was treated when Destiny’s Child broke up. Give it a rest already.

  • JoJo69

    @ honesty4u

    I agree with you. I do not seewhat everyone else sees when they say she looks Tranny. I think that is rude. Anyway, best of luck to all of them.

  • Creamy Peach

    Dawn is the best singer. Anyone who folows the group always says that. She gets the most love and Didddy noticed that and used it.

    Do ya thing Dawn. They hate on Beyonce 10 tims as much

  • MACK

    they SUCKED anyway…lol…i mean the whole “Danity Kane” thing was a gimmick!

  • cutie pie*kindly putting people on blast est.1985*

    the word minstrel needs to be cut lose ASAP!!

  • Allison Mae

    @ honesty and jojo

    EXACTLY! Dawn may not be a beauty queen but she can sing. That’s way the state of music is the way it is today, looks matter, not talent (ie, Cassie…).

  • Hannibal

    NO ONE CARES ABOUT TRANITY KANE…

  • tiredofitall

    I feel that Dawn didn’t have anything to do with it…Think about it this group was made…The members didn’t make it so already there is a problem that is hard so yes trusting people is hard….

  • Butterflygirl

    @ Allison Mae

    Cassie didn’t sell and no one sees her as anything more then one Diddy’s many side pieces. Unlike Aubrey, Cassie plays her position. No way Aubrey would be talking back to Diddy if he didn’t mess with her at some point. That was his fault! But we are getting back to talent. Jazmine Sullivan is proof of that.

  • DEEDEE

    I don’t understand why people call Dawn a tranny either…I think she’s a pretty girl and out of the group, Dawn has the most stage presence as well as the best vocals. Aubrey would have been up to Dawn’s level performance wise if she hadn’t let the fame get to her head. D.Woods didn’t really stand out to me until she started rocking the asymetrical hair, her voice is nothing special…its just like any other voice that you hear in pop music.

  • liz

    People only know aubrey because she turn up everywhere looking skank, Girl cant even sing that good, GO dawn, her and D.woods were the only ones that killed a stage, Aubrey was just the one that wore less clothes and got new boobs.

  • Encyclopedia Brown

    Oshie who you calling minstrel..you blue-eyed devil

    Go shoot a moose

  • Allison Mae

    @ Butterflygirl

    I feel what you were are saying. I was mainly speaking to the point that people are calling Dawn ugly (which has nothing to do with her talent level). Cassie is beautiful!!! But non-taleneted. She does play her role though, cant blame her.

  • serene

    If any of these gurls know whats good them, they would leave while they have the chance. They are bad boy artists….we all know what happens to Bad boy artist. D. Woods already knew whats good. Funny how since the group broke dawn is the only one getting play…hmph, she may go solo, but it doesn’t matter how much talent you have when your a diddy artists.

  • Butterflygirl

    @ Allison Mae

    Cassie knows she can’t sing. Well at least I hope she knows she has no talent. I just hope Diddy does right by Dawn. No one ever stays with him. He is not one that does right by his artist. Look at Faith, I have all her cd’s the girl can really sing. She should be on a or close to that Mary J level, but she was on Bad Boy. So it didn’t play out that way.

  • Allison Mae

    @ Butterflygirl

    I hope Cassie knows she has no talent either, lol. I totally agree with you about Faith. She is so talneted but Puff definitely dropped the ball on her.

  • http://myspace.com/fsab Ms Felicia Sabree

    Haters Danity kane actually has a great album with great vocal content as well as day 26. Diddy knew what he was doing I see what he see’s in every member of the group. I hope they get it together, but I doubt it Aubrey is to Hollywood.

  • http://scottydees.com jdmann

    Another day, another Diddy…can’t wait to see what he does tomorrow lol…

  • valenne

    so you guys mean to tell methat because you think she is not beautiful, she does not deserve to be a singer or have a career!! so what, talent doe snot matter anymore! I understand why rihanna is where she is! PEOPLE DON’T GIVE A F^CK ABOUT TALENT NO MORE!

  • valenne

    And you guys get it all wrong! ITS because Diddy choose DAWN that the group broke not the other way! Diddy saw how the group was ddoing and see that aubrey has nothing to do in this group and D WOODS is just too blah! SO he decide to go with Dawn and when the girls learn about that, they start acting up until the dissolution but dawn did not suddenly become the star, Diddy choose her and we all know that its not for her looks! good for her!

  • Kesha: (I BLEED BLACK-N-GOLD) Bush is out…what are we gonna do! Damn!

    She is by FAR the best singer in that group. And he did choose her so more power to you Dawn. I feel bad for Aundrea and Shannon when Dawn goes solo. D wood and Aubrey will continue to expose themselves in men’s magazines…SMH

  • kerry

    I totally agree with DEEDEE’s post. Dawn is talented, humble and pretty, and I also think she has a level of intellect and class that we should respect.

  • Arthur

    it gets dark and lonely

  • DA TRUFF!!! The Truth Will Set You Free!!!

    I DON’T GET IT………

    I HAVE NEVER SEEN A “MAN” LOOK ANYTHING LIKE THIS…, NOT AT ALL.

    SHE LOOKS GOOD TO ME.

  • nikki

    diddy better pull a destinys child on they assz an keep just the 3 he got now he stupid 4 lettin dwoodz go tho dawn is wack and ugly

  • krakbaby

    Dawn is pretty cute from most of the pics ive seen of her. As for the solo stuff, she’s been working on it a lil while. Back in July I was at a studio in baltimore to setup some reference tracks and I was speaking to the head engineer there and he mentioned Dawn had just came thru to record some tracks and bounced. Not that long after that a producer that i checked out down in Miami was pissed because a song that he sent to beyonce’s people somehow got leaked with Dawn’s vocals on it instead LOL. if you google around u might be able to find some of the stuff she’s been knocking out, them European Hackers aint no joke!

  • wood

    who else does diddy promote but himself! all his groups are doomed. It should be known by now that manufactured groups dont last long. You have to be friends from the start and even that dont make it last eg destiny child. Aurbry does not have the personality to be in a group. From the begining u could c that she is a solo artist. It was inevitable.

  • K.J.

    Why is it so important to call people we don’t even know foul and ugly names. Dawn is a great singer and her attitude and personality make her more beautiful that most people. God bless you Dawn! Keep going!!!!

  • Dena

    I understand looks are important in the entertainment industry but it’s time to get back to talent. Dawn is pretty, intelligent and talented. Her personality makes her even more attractive. Those qualities are rare in that industry. The Aubrey’s of the world come a dime a dozen. Enough is enough already. I wish Dawn the best of luck. I’d love to see one of the good ones win…for a change!

  • Terri

    People Leave Dawn alone. At least she understands that this is a business for Diddy and a career for her and she needs to be focused and make smart and sensible decisons to continue in this career she chose. Being an artists is hard work. Now unlike others who don’t know a good thing when they see it or don’t want it. I wish Dawn all the best in everything she does. Love You Girl, ignore all these haters. They just hate you because you are doing your thing and having fun doing it.

  • Ladee

    Danity Kane was a great group and both of there albums were hot. Dawn is the only person in the group who actually can sing. I am mad that D woods and Aubrey got kicked out, but it is what it is. Aubrey may have been right about letting the group know she was working on a song with diddy, but the group barely talked to each other. Did anyone notice on the show before the finale, Day 26 was eating breakfast, laughing and joking together and then they showed Danity Kane, Dawn was eating by herself. You can tell they didnt get along. Its a shame that people are throwing Dawn’s name in the dirt because someone saw potential in her.

  • swaggerx

    damn so many haterz
